A thought has just struck me about the tranmisson of this episode. Now RTD has said he expects the episode to be aired in November but what if they hold off until Saturday 6th December - the 20th anniversary of the end of the classic series.

That would be the best of nods to old school fans, as well as a two fingered rude hand gesture to the controller of ITV, oh what's his name again?

That's actually a Sunday the 6th.

Maybe we could have it on 21st Novemeber, as close they can to the actual Who Anniversary, if they stick with Saturday nights.

[Quote by: Chase] Waters of Mars looks like the living water aliens from one of the recent Annual stories. It was quite good and was about a family living in isolation...attacked by...

There was a Big Finish Audio - The Genocide Machine, which had the 7th Doctor and Ace go to a planet where the occupants actually lived as/in the water. its a pretty good story which features the Daleks and the debut of Bev Tarrant, who is a recurring charcter in the Benny Summerfield audios as well as 'Dust Breeding' - another 7th Doctor audio.

As an obvious fan of the new Master (yes JS was over the top but it was funny), I'm hoping the knocks mean he's back. Notice she said "he will knock" (if it is the Master) removing the whole female picking up the ring thing in Last of the Timelords. Anyway, "Waters..." looks good, interesting concept with water people. In true RTD style though, I think they'll still drag out the on-coming storm-esque thread though whether it is the Master or not. Glad it'll be in November though (allegedly) and not a trilogy over Christmas.

I apologize if this is the wrong forum for speculation, but I've been stewing over a "conspiracy theory" and want to get the opinions of others more informed than myself!

Suppose the Master DOES come back? He would be regenerated, right? Suppose that all the hype surrounding Matt Smith being cast as the 11th Doctor is a red herring and Smith comes on as the regenerated Master and the REAL actor playing the 11th Doctor has been kept tightly under wraps to shock and surprise us all when Tennant regenerates at the end of the 2 parter?

Could the BBC be THAT clever?

Your thoughts?
